Tuesday was the most hopeful I’ve felt about politics since 2008 Some thoughts on how Democrats can avoid fucking this up (like not settling scores with each other on Twitter, for example)

New @PuckNews Did the midterms weaken JD Vance’s chances in 2028? Some activists and party insiders think so — as other Republicans feel more emboldened to test the waters The catch: GOP voters still like Vance, even if MAGA got wiped out puck.news/washington/2026/11…

Heroic work without a lot of resources from the DNC content/digital teams
after the 2024 loss, we did a lot of work to overhaul our content program to meet the moment. read about the strategy and vision directly from @paulinaVEVO in @milkkarten's Link In Bio newsletter: linkinbio.news/p/the-dnc-soc…

One possibility here is that he’s avoiding press because he doesn’t yet have a definitive answer about 2028…
Sen. Jon Ossoff has gone back to his pre-campaign, low-profile habits, skipping national media interviews and avoiding gaggles of Capitol Hill reporters. If he’s running for president, he’s definitely not acting like it. More in the @ajc newsletter… ajc.com/politics/2026/11/the…

The boat strikes aren't even war crimes they're just straight-up crimes because there's no authorization for the use of force - no war - in the Caribbean.

Democrats are currently at 55.8% of the House popular vote, per @CookPolitical. That's the highest for any party since 1974. Republicans haven't gotten that much of the House popular vote since at least World War II.

A small cabal of self serving, ultra rich tech titans should not be allowed to drive humanity off a cliff with artificial super intelligence, while they quietly build their rockets and bunkers in New Zealand and Hawaii to escape the apocalypse. Stand with us and DO NOT ACCEPT this future.
AI companies admit what they’re building might kill everyone. We don't have to agree to this. Add your name at donotaccept.ai to say: we do not accept your terms.

I have met the smartest, kindest, most dedicated and most generous volunteers through @votesaveamerica. Our online slack community is bar none the best political community I have ever been a part of.
A not-at-all humble brag about the work @votesaveamerica and our @CrookedMedia audience did this cycle: 1) Raised over $4.5 million for more than 100 candidates and grassroots orgs 2) Got 20,000 volunteers to engage in our new relational organizing program 3) We asked our listeners to run for office. 2,850 (!) raised their hands. 41 filed across 11 states. 25 won their primaries or ran unopposed. 3 just won seats in the NC legislature: @Winn4NC, Jessica Bichler, and Jess Rivera 4) Invested EARLY in races like @SarahforIowa, @ZachDemboKY, @SeanAMcCann, and @DonDavisNC - all winners 5) At least 25 of our House targets won, including the Dems running against our Crooked Dozen Rs: @Mendoza4AZ, @Villegas_CA22, @MannyRutinel, @BohannanIowa, @WeWillMi, @RebeccaForNJ07, @CaitforNewYork, @bpforcongress, @PaigeGCognetti, @JanelleStelson, @bobbypulido425, @RebeccaforWI, and @JamieAgerNC Proud of @__Shaniqua_ and our VSA team, our volunteers, and our audience for supporting such a smart, winning strategy that reflected the full breadth of the political spectrum on the left. You guys rock.

Carlos Eduardo Espina: “I’ve gotten so many people who’ve said, ‘I’m super conservative but I voted Democrat on the basis that you just can’t have, in a democracy, masked agents on the street...’ If you set the precedent that just because we won we’re going to forgive everything the past administration did, we’re going to end up in the same situation in four years.”

Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff may have won the Crooked Con 2028 Democratic straw poll this weekend, but @TIAreports tells @DanaBashCNN, "When he says he has zero interest, and that is his quote, zero interest in running for president, I believe him."
